Para Chaplain Earns His Maroon Beret

A military chaplain has passed out from the elite Pegasus Company, for Airborne Forces.
 
Captain Matt Coles is the padre attached to 2nd Battalion The Parachute Regiment. 
 
He doesn’t have to complete the same physical challenges as the paratroopers, but he’s chosen to, in order to walk the same miles as the soldiers he ministers.
